SCEC Reincarnates Ancient Sea Creatures with Stratasys Technology

SCEC did another round of research and evaluation for a 3D printer that offered both precision and fine details. It chose a PolyJet technology-based 3D printer because it met both precision and color reproduction requirements. The 3D printer also brought other unexpected benefits: user-friendliness and speed. “It now only takes three to four hours to complete one job, whereas it would previously take one full day by hand”. Staff can let the 3D printer run larger models, such as one that took 40 hours, overnight without monitoring. Night shifts are no longer necessary.

3D Printing Improves Harmonica Trio's Look and Sound

“With PolyJet 3D printed patterns and RTV molding, we were able to produce amplifier enclosures that made it easier to play the harmonica, sound better and look much more professional. In addition, we have also sold a substantial number of these microphone holders to other harmonica players around the world.”

Yuima Nakazato Tears Up the Runway with Fashions Printed on Stratasys 3D Printers

Sun Junjie, Nakazato’s collaborator for the 2014 line, used 3D CAD software to give shape to Nakazato’s vision. “Without the Objet500 Connex 3D printing technology, it would never have been possible to make these complicated geometries in such a short timeframe,” said Sun. “I made two or three design iterations with prototypes for each piece before it was completed.”
